I bought the vacuum cleaner because I was tired of pulling the cord behind me and constantly taking out and cleaning the lux and hose. I originally assumed that the vacuum cleaner would only delay the "big" vacuuming, but I was wrong. The first time I used the vacuum cleaner on an already "vacuumed" carpet, it sucked the entire container of dirt and dust out of the carpet. My now "ex-main" vacuum cleaner is a bit older, but it has a carpet brush and was quite premium at the time, so I don't think I'm comparing apples to pears. This cordless vacuum cleaner has now become a vacuum cleaner for regular vacuuming. I rate the vacuuming itself very positively and I dare say that the turbo mode vacuums too much. Even on the standard setting, the brush head gets too tight on slightly higher (approx. 5-8 mm) carpets, so I vacuum on eco mode, which sucks more than enough. I was very pleased that the device can charge slowly - about 4 hours - so the battery doesn't get as much work. In addition, when the battery protection is switched on, charging stops at 90%, which in my opinion is an excellent functionality that many cordless machines do not have (this is only true when charging with an adapter, not a fast charger). The energy saving setting, on the other hand, is rather annoying. If I understand it correctly, as the battery dies, the power is reduced to vacuum longer. I've turned this off - I don't vacuum everything at once, so I don't need to drain the battery to zero, and even then slowly. The battery has sufficient capacity, but it's not for 80 m² of carpet, as someone wrote here. For my carpets with slightly longer fibres (5-8 mm) I would say it is realistic to vacuum 30-50 m² of carpet on one battery using the brush. But this is absolutely sufficient, because the vacuum cleaner is at hand and you don't have to do a big vacuuming all at once (smooth floors and low carpets use the battery an order of magnitude slower). What I would consider a disadvantage are the QR codes on the display. I couldn't scan the small ones, my phone just doesn't like them, and the big one with the "instructions" links to a non-existent page - QC department failed, but easily remedied @Bosch. Next, I struggled with the ability to turn on the other modes (silent, automobile, and delicate carpet). I couldn't find anywhere written how to do it (even the YouTube videos don't show the whole procedure), but I finally figured it out: In the menu turn on e.g. silent mode, jump out and then switch to turbo mode and then right again to the next mode, which is the silent one. Or by turning on e.g. silent mode, you don't turn it on, but you add it as a fourth mode on the main screen, and I don't think it's described anywhere (this is also true for car and delicate carpet modes). Another minor flaw is that you can't get into the menu without starting to vacuum. The procedure is to turn on (starts vacuuming) menu (stops vacuuming). Thus, for example. you can't turn on the silent mode without vacuuming twice (and you still have to go through turbo mode, see above). But these are just little things that I quickly got used to and I hope that my review will help someone to set everything up faster. After reading the other reviews, I was a little worried about the weight, but it's fine. I probably wouldn't want to vacuum with it all day, but for a normal volume of vacuuming I didn't even realize it.
